The use of corporate social responsibility in response to product‐harm crisis: How do stock market reactions matter?

AbstractThe initial stock market reaction to a product‐harm crisis is an important factor motivating firms to engage in corporate social responsibility (CSR). By analyzing event data on product‐harm crises in Chinese listed companies spanning from 2009 to 2019, we uncover evidence that crisis‐related abnormal returns have a significant negative association with the subsequent growth of CSR. Importantly, we find that this negative relationship is especially pronounced for firms that have a greater need to restore moral legitimacy, such as those receiving high levels of media favorability and positive analyst recommendations. These findings offer novel insights into the motivations behind firms' increased investment in CSR following product‐harm crises from a legitimacy perspective.

After all, CSR campaigns are intended to support a certain group.Design/methodology/approachUsing a social identity theory and social identity complexity qualitative framework, this paper analyzes the perceptions of the National Football League's (NFL) Salute to Service military campaign among service members, veterans and families.FindingsAfter collecting data via a series of 16 interviews, while service members stated that the service members appreciated the campaign and appreciated what the NFL seeks to do through the campaign, this specific Salute to Service did not have a significant cognitive and behavioral impact for these military consumers.Originality/valueThis work builds on prior CSR beneficiary literature, providing an opportunity to further expand ways in which sport organizations can make sports organizations' CSR campaigns more impactful.

Transactions with related entities in the light of tax solutions and CSR goals

Purpose: The aim of the article is to analyze the impact of transactions with related entities on the company's financial results and the implementation of sustainable development goals.

It also conducted its own survey research to learn more about the relationship between the use of corporate social responsibility in a company's strategy and its approach to taxation. Findings: The article shows that the proposed changes in the publication of financial statements and non-financial reporting, together with the transfer pricing policy, constitute a new face of tax optimization in the context of corporate social responsibility.

CSR Shifting to HSR? A Critical Analysis of Future Trends

In the past few years a shift is seen in the use of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to a Human Social Responsibility (HSR) approach. This is based on the idea that a business has its employees as a resource and not just a beneficiary of the CSR practices of this business, and that employees are the sustained element of CSR as they can impact its objectives and scope with ease due to interaction with management and community at the same time. This research reviews literature related to both areas and the reasons such shift is seen in different business industries, and how HSR is handled by employees at different levels of the organization, as well as the limitations related to HSR.

Corporate social responsibility disclosures and reputation risk management post the banking royal commission: a study of the big four banks

PurposeThis study aims to explore the use of corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosures by the “Big Four” Australian banks post the banking royal commission (BRC) to manage their reputational risk.Design/methodology/approachThis paper uses a case study approach through a thematic analysis of the Big Four banks’ annual and sustainability reports and uses reputation risk management (RRM) as a conceptual lens to explore the image restoration strategies used by these banks.FindingsThe study finds that a corrective action strategy was disclosed extensively by all four banks whereby each bank outlined the actions that they were undertaking to correct the deficiencies identified by the BRC. However, the impact of these proposed actions was tampered by the fact that each bank sought to use strategies to reduce the offensiveness of their misdemeanours. It is argued that while disclosure on corrective actions and compensation is useful, an emphasis on reducing offensiveness of actions impacts the effectiveness of banks’ responses and their acceptance of full responsibility for their actions.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper applies the RRM perspective to a recent reputation damaging event, thereby expanding the literature on image restoration strategies used by companies during major incidents.Practical implicationsThis study provides useful insights in relation to the approaches used to manage the reputational risk arising from the BRC. It provides insights into the credibility of information disclosed post an incident and has potential implications for the assurance of such information.Social implicationsGiven the critical importance of the banking industry to modern society, misconduct in this sector needs a closer examination, requiring a greater need for responsibility from its key players.Originality/valueThis study extends the applicability of the RRM perspective to a social incident and highlights that it is reputation, rather than legitimacy, that is critical when organisations in an industry face extensive public scrutiny. A thematic analysis approach adds value to the methods used for analysing CSR disclosures.

Data responsibility, corporate social responsibility, and corporate digital responsibility

AbstractThis commentary looks at the use of corporate social responsibility (CSR) mechanisms for implementing responsible data use. The commentary offers an overview of CSR theory and the discourse on a growing phenomenon known as corporate digital responsibility (CDR). The commentary links these theories to the historical debates on the nature of technology, ethics, and society. The aim is to reflect on CSR and CDR mechanisms and ignite the discussion on their adequacy considering the pursuit of data responsibility. Through our discussion and brief case studies, the paper reveals the gaps in relying on CSR and CDR and the need for a broader societal and comprehensive approach.

Influence of Tunneling Incentive, Risk Management and Company Characteristics on Tax Avoidance with Corporate Social Responsibility Disclosure Asa Moderating Variable In Mining Companies Listed on IDX

In Indonesia, there are tax evasion cases involving taxpayers paying taxes that must be paid in various ways. This gap phenomenon occurs in the case of a coal mining company that has been proven to have evaded tax. In addition, there are many more cases that show corporate tax evasion and have caused many state losses that impact the country's economic growth because of their efforts to reduce costs which are a source of income for the state. This study aims to provide empirical evidence of the effect of applying tunneling incentives, risk management, and firm characteristics using the leverage ratio and firm size, as independent variables, on tax avoidance as the dependent variable, with the use of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as the independent variable. Variable moderator. Determination of the sample using the purposive sampling technique obtained a sample of 8 companies with 40 observational data. The analysis technique and hypothesis testing were carried out by panel data regression analysis through Eviews-11. The results showed that tunneling incentive and firm size had a significant positive effect on tax avoidance. Risk management and leverage do not affect tax avoidance. Corporate social responsibility can only moderate the effect of tunneling incentives on tax avoidance and firm size on tax avoidance but cannot moderate the effect of risk management and leverage.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Protection in the Nigerian Energy Sector: Reflection on Issues and Legal Reform

The abatement of environmental degradation has been an issue which has received growing attention in recent times. Despite the increased attention however, environment pollution has remained unabated in Nigeria with its adverse impacts on the citizens. The question then is, do businesses owe society any social responsibility as it relates to the protection of environment? The Energy sector in Nigeria plays a very crucial role in Nigeria’s development, as the industrial development and innovation necessary for the economic development of any country is directly linked to the management of energy resources. Nigeria is endowed with abundant (fossil fuel) energy resources, such as oil, gas, coal, fuel wood, etc., which are dominantly the fuel sources for electrical energy production, yet, Nigeria is faced with environmental challenges capable of limiting and destroying access to these energy resources without taking cognizance of their environmental control. Therefore, this article attempts at navigating the imperative of Corporate Social Responsibility. Furthermore, the use of Corporate Social Responsibility as a tool for abatement and prevention of environmental damage to the energy sector is considered. Finally, possible recommendations were made as control measure through CSR in Nigeria in order to protect the energy resources and ensure a clean and healthy environment.

Attention to social issues and CEO duality as enablers of resilience to exogenous shocks in the tourism industry

The tourism literature recognises the importance of resilience to crises, but little is known about how tourism firms become resilient. In particular, the use of corporate social responsibility (CSR) as a risk-reduction strategy has been identified as an important gap in the literature. Aiming to fill this gap and adopt a more integrative view, this study examines complementarities between tourism firms' attention to social issues and corporate governance mechanisms in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Supported by the attention-based view and stewardship theory, the findings show that firms' attention to social issues and CEO duality might be associated with higher degrees of firm resilience. If firms have a CSR committee, the presence of CEO duality might leverage firms’ attention to social issues. The findings suggest that corporate governance should not restrict executive flexibility when tourism firms face exogenous shocks if firms pay attention to social issues.

The use of corporate social responsibility in the recovery phase of crisis management: A case study in the Brazilian company Petrobras

Despite evidence that the extractive industry adheres to corporate social responsibility (CSR), companies developing such activities still attract negative attention because of their frequent involvement in crises. The adoption of CSR practices to respond to crises is particularly important for the postcrisis, for which the literature has been extensive in documenting the mechanisms mobilized by organizations for damage control and for learning from crisis events. However, the previous literature has been less prolific in investigating the recovery phase of crises, which involves a series of actions that organizations might undertake between the phases of damage control and learning. By employing an inductive and qualitative approach, this paper examines the use of CSR practices during the recovery phase of crises in the oil industry context by investigating three cases involving the Brazilian company Petrobras. Our findings indicate that four mechanisms are mobilized in the recovery phase of the different crises: penance, deference, renaissance and insurance. With the adoption of a processual perspective, our paper provides a comprehensive understanding of the processes underlying these four mechanisms and how they shape the actions of organizations in high-risk activities such as the extractive industry.

The use of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) as a political tool: A case study of tobacco industry in Swabi Pakistan

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is perceived as a major component of contemporary business policies. It is considered as a significant tool for business promotion and survival in the 21st century. The ideas of CSR (Welfare) and the business model, tobacco companies create a contradictory concept as it kills one-half of its chain users. Tobacco companies are strictly prohibited by international and local laws from the promotion of their products. In order to cope up with such strict laws, they start social initiatives. Hence, they take help from the idea of CSR. Through CSR they earned a soft image and entered in politics to influence public policy in their favour. This paper is an effort to discuss the real situation behind CSR initiatives of tobacco industry in Pakistan. Annual reports of Philip Morris Pakistan and Pakistan tobacco Company are analysed. Interviews of local companies’ owners or officials, research papers, newspaper articles and related sites have been investigated to get the conclusion. Resultantly, this paper emphasizes on the CSR regulations and centralization. The findings also indicate that tobacco money is directly and indirectly used in politics in the form of CSR.
